Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyThe Effect of Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea on Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetes.
There is uncertainty about the effects of treating obstructive sleep apnea on glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. ⋯ This trial showed no effect of positive airway pressure therapy on glycemic control in patients with relatively well-controlled type 2 diabetes and obstructive sleep apnea. Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT00509223).

Randomized Controlled TrialEffect of CPAP on Glycemic Control in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Type 2 Diabetes. A Randomized Clinical Trial.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes that adversely impacts glycemic control. However, there is little evidence about the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on glycemic control in patients with diabetes. ⋯ Among patients with suboptimally controlled type 2 diabetes and OSA, CPAP treatment for 6 months resulted in improved glycemic control and insulin resistance compared with results for a control group. Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01801150).
